Global cable manufacturer chooses Sydney for growth
Amokabel Group is a Swedish company that makes high-quality cable solutions and operates in six countries. The company expanded into Australia to bring its covered conductor technology to local power networks.
This technology can reduce bushfire risk by up to 90%, helping improve safety and energy reliability in high-risk areas.
Investment and expansion in NSW
Amokabel set up operations in Sydney and, in 2023, doubled its manufacturing capacity in Australia. The company is now exploring further expansion of its local production facilities.
How Investment NSW helped
Amokabel received tailored support from Investment NSW to help with:
- choosing the right location
- entering the local market
- building business connections across NSW
- developing a long-term growth strategy.
This support helps reduce Amokabel’s reliance on imported products. Now there's a strong supply of advanced cable solutions made in NSW.
